Answer to: function to echo out the link to a post or page within the loop?

I answered with the_permalink() response was Bummer....

Then tried get_permalink() response also Bummer

Appreciate any help....I'd like to know the correct answer so I can look up that function and review it.

Determined that .........the_permalink was the correct answer.........I had answered.......the_permalink()......

Had the same problem with another answer in same quiz concerning post/page titles..... I answered the_title()........got a Bummer.......turned out.......the_title..... without the () was accepted as correct answer

There appears to be little consistency in whether the () should be included in the function answer, or I'm not understanding where you should or shouldn't use the ()....?

I just tried the_permalink and the editor accepted it. Note that you should not enter () after the function name.

Thanks for the response. In future quizzes I'll not include the ()...
